Lost in the tropics, mosquitoes and flies
Sucking my blood, Draining my life
Humidity stricken, sticking like glue
Sweat drips profusely, too hot to snooze
Night lamp flickers, nocturnal creatures play
Their conversation erupting, yet silence in the day
The smog filled sky, barely shows the moon
Reminiscing moments, passing so soon
Hours and days, that has disappeared
Victim of time and forgotten years
Withering away, with experiences learnt
Older and wiser, for I've been burnt
Sad thoughts and anger, flow into me
Afraid and broken, for being unable to see
Fallen to lies and false beliefs,
What happen to truth and loyalty?
The floor fan spins, blowing warm air
Regrettable past, now my soul is bare
I thought at times, love is only for fools
Losing all hope, then I found you
Loneliness and despair, sink slowly away,
An eternal flame, cast shadows that waltz and sway.
To the beat of coming rain and stirring wind,
The heavens open, cleansing our sin
Past lessons remembered, how to forget?
Not dwelling in history, or past regrets
Your not my first, but will be my last.
